COULD YOU BE CONFUSING YOUR DOG?

Too often dog owners ask: “Why won’t my dog listen to me?” The simple answer is because they don’t understand what you are saying.

If you are familiar with the Bark Busters training methods, you know that the foundation of our behavioral changes rests on communication – voice tones and body language. For thousands of years, this is how dogs have communicated with each other. Dogs behave consistently in response to certain triggers. Unfortunately, it is often humans causing the problems when inconsistent commands are issued or rules are not consistently applied.

The end result? Your dog is listening to you but doesn’t understand what you are saying. Remember that your dog wants to please you, he just doesn’t know how.
